Manchester United target Sergej Milinkovic-Savic subject of bids as Lazio confirm they’ve received offers worth over £62m
Serbia star was scouted by Jose Mourinho during international break and is also of interest to Manchester City
LAZIO have confirmed “several offers” for star midfielder and Manchester United target Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The Serbian ace is regarded as one of the finest young players in Serie A and has been attracting serious interest from Jose Mourinho.
The Special One scouted Milinkovic-Savic earlier this week during Serbia’s World Cup qualifier against Austria.
And the player’s agent – former Chelsea striker Mateja Kezman – claims United are ready to launch a bid.
Rivals Manchester City are also keeping tabs on Milinkovic-Savic, who has plenty of technical ability despite his height and strength.
And it now seems a number of suitors have made their move for the star, with Lazio revealing they’ve received bids upwards of £62million.
However, the Italians are confident Milinkovic-Savic wants to stay put in Rome after signing a contract extension six months ago.
Director of Football Igli Tare told Premium Sport via Calcio Mercato: “It is the pitch that decides the player’s price-tag.
“We have received several offers for him. We have received offers exceeding 70million euros (£62m) but not from Juventus.
“He signed a contract extension six months ago and that means that he is happy here.”
